3.1.4 Load-Balance Policy
This router supports the function of load balancing. It can assign traffic with protocol type, IP
address for specific host, a subnet of hosts, and port range to be allocated in WAN interface.
The user can assign traffic category and force it to go to dedicate network interface based on
the following web page setup. Twenty policies of load-balance are supported by this router.
Note:
Load-Balance Policy is running only when more than one WAN interface is
activated.

field is blank, it means that all the source IPs inside the LAN will
be passed through the WAN interface.
Dest IP Start
Type the destination IP start for the specified WAN interface.
Dest IP End
Type the destination IP end for the specified WAN interface. If
this field is blank, it means that all the destination IPs will be

through the WAN interface.
3.2 LAN
Local Area Network (LAN) is a group of subnets regulated and ruled by router. The design of
network structure is related to what type of public IP addresses coming from your ISP.
3.2.1 Basics of LAN
The most generic function of Vigor router is NAT. It creates a private subnet of your own. As
mentioned previously, the router will talk to other public hosts on the Internet by using public
IP address and talking to local hosts by using its private IP address. What NAT does is to
translate the packets from public IP address to private IP address to forward the right packets
to the right host and vice versa. Besides, Vigor router has a built-in DHCP server that assigns
private IP address to each local host. See the following diagram for a briefly understanding.
In some special case, you may have a public IP subnet from your ISP such as
220.135.240.0/24. This means that you can set up a public subnet or call second subnet that
each host is equipped with a public IP address. As a part of the public subnet, the Vigor router
will serve for IP routing to help hosts in the public subnet to communicate with other public
hosts or servers outside. Therefore, the router should be set as the gateway for public hosts.

What is Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
Vigor router will exchange routing information with neighboring routers using the RIP to
accomplish IP routing. This allows users to change the information of the router such as IP
address and the routers will automatically inform for each other.
What is Static Route
When you have several subnets in your LAN, sometimes a more effective and quicker way for
connection
is the
Static routes
function rather than other method. You may simply set rules to
forward data from one specified subnet to another specified subnet without the presence of
RIP.
What are Virtual LANs
You can group local hosts by physical ports and create up to 4 virtual LANs. To manage the
communication between different groups, please set up rules in Virtual LAN (VLAN) function
and the rate of each.
